Early in the morning, another group of prisoners arrived at the mine. This group of prisoners were all strong, and their movements were uniform. Most of them had hideous scars on their bodies, and a valiant aura emanated from them.
Luo Kai was eating in a corner, shirtless. When he saw this group of people, he felt an inexplicable chill. He thought to himself, "What do these people do?"
Li Gui, who was beside him, squinted his eyes and said, "It looks like they have all been on the battlefield. Strange, why are there war criminals here?"
During this period of time, Luo Kai had been hanging out with Thirteen, and this had piqued Li Gui's curiosity. He had been hanging out with them from time to time.
Thirteen stared at the bald leader of the prisoners, and his face turned serious. He said in a low voice, "This group of people have all trained in physical skills, and their killing intent is very strong. They should be the elites of the army."
Li Gui suddenly laughed, "Hehe, then this is going to be fun."
"What's baleful aura?" Luo Kai heard another new term.
Thirteen put down the metal bowl and thought about how to explain it.
Li Gui took the lead and explained, "As long as you have killed a person or an animal with your own hands, killing intent will form. For example, a butcher who often slaughters cows and sheep will have a much stronger killing intent than an ordinary person, or even a top predator will have a very strong killing intent.
According to the latest scientific research institute, this murderous aura is a type of dark energy. It is the resentment of the dead after death. It will affect people's psychology and mind, and it will haunt the murderer for life. Those veterans who have been on the battlefield are most likely to get war syndrome because of this murderous aura. "
"Dark energy."
Luo Kai was no stranger to this term. In his previous life, he was a university professor. Although he had neglected a lot of his research, he still knew some famous scientific terms. Dark energy was the unified name for all unknown energy or matter. This kind of energy occupied 80% of the matter in the universe, and human research on this kind of energy was still in its infancy.
Luo Kai and Thirteen couldn't help but look at Li Gui in surprise. This old man actually knew so much.
"Hehe, this old man has lived for a long time. In my early years, I was fortunate enough to go to Shangjing in Higashimogami Province. I attended some classes at Shangjing University, so I know a little about everything."
Just as Li Gui had said, there was chaos at the mine that night. The new prisoners clashed with the old prisoners, and the old prisoners suffered heavy casualties. It was said that eight of them died on the spot, all of them killed with a single blow. The prison had to deploy hundreds of armed guards to stop the riot.
The next day, when Luo Kai and the others arrived at the mine, they found the place in a mess. There was a large amount of blood left, and a dozen prisoners were lying on the ground moaning.
They didn't go to work today. Nearly a thousand prisoners gathered in the square, whispering to each other with different expressions.
South Fang Island Prison often received war criminals from all over the world. Most of them were very ordinary, and their combat power was only slightly stronger than the average person. However, this batch of war criminals was not ordinary. Each of them was very powerful, and their attacks were ruthless. One conflict was enough to establish their reputation.
The five prison bullies also appeared in the square of the camp, which was rare. They gritted their teeth and stared at the new prisoners who were firmly shackled on the cross in front of them. To them, the thing they were most afraid of was the original rules being broken.
Last night, they had originally sent people to rope in the new prisoners, and at the same time, give them a warning. However, they didn't expect this group of new prisoners to be so unruly. They demanded to give up one of the prison bullies' positions on the spot. The old prisoners relied on their numbers and immediately started a conflict. They originally wanted to teach them a lesson, but they didn't expect this group of prisoners to be so strong that they suffered heavy casualties.
The leader of the mine guards, Long Hong, looked at the group of new prisoners with a cold face. He was also a veteran who had been on the battlefield, and he liked this group of war criminals a little. However, with such a big mess, if he didn't give an explanation, he wouldn't be able to convince the masses in the future.
Just as he was thinking about what to do, a shout came from outside the mine, "Warden Sir has arrived!"
A series of orderly footsteps sounded, and the first thing that came into view was a soft white light. A group of guards in black armor walked into the mine, surrounded by the white light. Within the white light was a slender man. He was wearing a white shirt made of fine scales, and the hazy white light was emitted from the scales.
When he saw the man's appearance, Luo Kai couldn't help but open his mouth in shock. This was because the man had an eye between his eyebrows. Coupled with his handsome face and the soft white light emitted from the scales, it reminded him of Erlang Shen in a TV series in his previous life. Was this the Three-Eyed Race?
Everyone in the mine bowed their bodies, not daring to look at the man.
Long Hong hurriedly trotted over, "Sir, thank you for coming. It's just a small situation. I will take care of it."
Beside the three-eyed man stood a middle-aged man wearing the same white scale armor. It was the director who transferred Luo Yang and the others to the mine. At this time, he was following the man obediently and explaining the situation in the mine in a low voice.
The three-eyed man glanced at the group of new prisoners on the cross and said softly, "Let them go."
Long Hong hesitated, "Sir, should we put them in confinement for a few days? If we don't teach them a lesson, it will be difficult to manage them in the future."
The three-eyed man said expressionlessly, "The mine's production must be increased this year. That's why I asked for a group of war criminals. There may be more in the future. If they have any demands, you can satisfy them as long as you can. If there are any troublemakers, you can deal with them. Remember, you must use both kindness and power to control your subordinates!"
"Yes, that … Sir, if you can ask for more gunpowder and more food, I promise that the production will at least double last year's!"
"I will think about it."
…
After the three-eyed man left, the mine became noisy again. The supervisors were yelling loudly to get the prisoners to work. The new prisoners were also released. They all looked at the five prison guards with cold smiles. Clearly, this was not the end.
Li Gui carried his basket and followed behind Thirteen. He mumbled, "Why would a three-eyed man of a higher race come to this god-forsaken place to be a warden? Strange!"
"What's different about the three-eyed race?" Luo Kai asked quietly.
Li Gui frowned and said, "The three-eyed race are all very intelligent. No matter what they do, they are very good at it. They are very popular in all the human countries. They can be city lords wherever they go. What's so special about this prison?"
Luo Kai pointed at the grey-brown ore on the ground and said, "That's easy. I think they came for this mine. This mine produces a lot of ore every year."
Li Gui's eyes brightened and he nodded. "Yes. I heard that Star Horse has a very tense relationship with its neighbors. If a war breaks out and the transportation is blocked, this mine will be very valuable."
